Yahoo cache of the page.Having a journalist family member, I can't speak badly in general of journalists. However, I can say this is an EXTREMELY uninformed article, with no research or backing. It's something which would be better kept to forum topics, blog posts, etc, than a "news" article.
The post seems templated of the many Steam Greenlight doubter articles. At least those have justifications.

I can't keep that paragraph going. The article is just too much... honestly crap. It wouldn't be healthy for me to go on.
